They look much much bluer on the pictures than the are, but what a fast improvement in light
 

Going to have a play with the aim, and get my mates camera and re take later

[zippo]

looks very good, which kit did you use Jon  

[JonArgraig]

The £12.99 ebay kit

^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yeah, i've had those kits before, great value and great performance. Jon, do they offer you any discount on postage for the 5???

...now, I must get that 'how-to' done!

Knocked a tenner of the total cost, not bed really with the price so low to start with I guess

Jon,

Had a quick shufty at the kits, do they only do one bulb ie the dipped/main? What about the other main beam bulb? How easy are they to fit? Are they a real improvement over the ordinary projector headlamps?

Massive improvement, when you order the kit you state the bulb type needed and the colour range, I'll be getting a kit for my fogs and main beam with the next wage.

Dodle to fit the looms come pre wired to take the power supply from your old bulb so it plug and play, took me about 20 mins to fit, though the NS one was a PITA due to the battery been in the way.

I can not recomend these any more than I do, the diffrence is staggering.

Maybe we should try for a group buy from the guy...

Have to keep us informed mate.

I wouldn't be putting them in your main beam headlights mate, their design is not appropriate. 1. The slow startup time means you will lose the ability to flash main beam and switch on and off swiftly. 2. The 'throw' will not be a long as some others I have tried...currently running 80% Philips 'X-treme power' here, definately the way forward and more MOT friendly

Wouldn't bother, they are so cheap now that it is not really worth the hassle. There is also dispute over their legality also and I know for one that they will not be 'endorsed' by the moderators of this forum.

Am reading with interest regards the lighting upgrades.

I tried the Xenon type bulbs in my GLS and found the whiter light to be a nice improvement.

I am now looking at buying an Elite which has the Xenon headlights.

Are both the Dip and Main beam on these the Xenon/HID type or just the Dip's  and to save me asking later, what about the fog;s.  If these are not as standard then is the fog kit easy to fit.

[VXL V6]

HID is only for dip, put some phillips X-treme +80's in for the main beam which seems to have improved the output, also a closer match to the HID's.

[Mr Skrunts]

Cheers, am off to look them up on google and price them up.

[VXL V6]

I bought mine from this chap on eBay, they were delivered two days later.....

Osram Night Breaker bulbs are supposed to be good as well.

[Mr Skrunts]

What fitting are the Main beams.  H? (1,4 or 7)
